How to Spray, When to Spray and 
What Pumps to use. 

Spraying is to fruit growers what insurance is to a mer- 
chant. While insurance protects the merchant from loss by 
fire, careful spraying not only protects from loss but assures 
good fruit and a profit to the grower. You cannot afford to 
go without this protection when it can be had so easily. It 
is not a good business policy. Ask the successful fruit 
grower what he thinks of spraying. It is true some have 
given up spraying saying "it does not pay," but after a sea- 
son or so of "bad luck " as they call it, they again take up 
spraying rather than leave the trees to the mercy of the pests 
that are so numerous these days. 

With each season new ideas are brought out which tend 
to improve and advance the methods of spraying. The Lime- 
Sulphur- Salt wash coming into more general use has brought 
about much discussion as to how this wash effects the differ- 
ent metals and other materials used in spraying. There 
seems to be a great difference of opinion as- to the construc- 
tion of the proper Pump. To satisfy ourselves and in order 
that we might have some positive knowledge on this impor- 
tant subject, we have made exhaustive Tests with this solu- 
tion in connection with our Spraying Apparatus. The out- 
come of these tests shows conclusively that the wash does 
not materially effect either iron or brass parts, but at the 
same time we have learned some valuable points and have 
embodied them in our goods for this year. All Pumps and 
spraying Apparatus should be thoroughly cleaned after use, 
thereby prolonging their life materially. 

When we brought out our " Monarch " Pump we carried 
out the idea of Vertical Outside Packed Plungers. This idea 
has proven to be a most remarkable one both as to durability 
and ease of operation. In the new " Sentinel Jr." which is 
equipped with removal bronze lining, we have solved the 
perplexing question which always faces the maker of Hori- 
zontal Cylinder Pumps. 

The most remarkable idea advanced in years, however, is 
carried out in our new " Mistry " Nozzle, which while it 
resembles the " Vermorel " in appearances, gives a finer 
cloud of spray. This is accomplished at an exceedingly low 
pressure and makes the operation of Spray Pumps about 
.twice as easy as before. 

We know that the ideas which we have carried out this year 
will meet with the general approval of the public, because 
they are what the public are asking for. As we have often 
remarked before, we are not practical fruit growers, but 
manufacturers of Pumps. All our most important results 
were originally suggested by fruit growers and have been per- 
fected through our knowledge of Pump building. We are 
always glad to cooperate with the fruit growing public and 
carrying out any ideas which might prove beneficial to 
spraying.

Pig. 1318 "Monarch" has two bronze plungers operating 
in two vertical cylinders, which are packed with a material 
uneff ected by spraying solutions. This construction permits all 
gritty particles to pass through the Valves and out ; and 
does not grind the cylinder. The ports are large and direct. 
The valves are bronze, ground to fit their bronze seats, are acces- 
sible through hand holes. The lever is so arranged as to be 
operated in two positions. The " Monarch " combines large 
capacity and ease of operation, and we do not hesitate to say 
that this is the easiest operated Pump of its capacity on the 
market.

Goulds Triplex Power Spraying Outfit. 

While we have been making for years Spraying Outfits 
operated by Gasoline Engines and used by municipalities in 
the protection of shade trees, it was not until within the 
last few years that we made an outfit particularly adapted for 
orchard work. This year we have made some decided improve- 
ments. 

The Pump and Engine are direct conn ected by coupling 
and reduction gearing and are mounted on a cast iron bed- 
plate 36 by 21 inches, which extends under both Pump and 
Engine. The Engine can be separated from the Pump in a 
short time and used independently when desired. 

The Pump is one of our modem Triplex Plunger Pumps 
originated and perfected by us and now used for every service. 

Pigf. 1428 Power Spraying Outfit consists of a i ^ 
Horse power portable Gasoline Engine complete with 
electric ignitor including battery, spark coil, cooling 
tank, etc., a Bronze Fitted Triplex Pump with water 
relief valve, 200 pound pressure gauge, brass dis- 
charge shutoff with hose couplings for four leads of 
hose, 5 feet of suction hose and strainer. When so 
ordered we can supply half round tank to fit in bol- 
sters of wagon. 

It is made with three vertical outside packed plungers 
operated by a crank shaft in such a manner as to insure smooth 
flow of liquid and an even pressure with the least possible 
power. All valves and seats are made of phosphor bronze 
and the valves are made with long winged guides so arranged 
as to give a revolving motion when water passes through 
them. This prevents the valves from always seating in the 
same position. The valves are easily accessible for examina- 
tion by removing the valve covers. The glands are the best 
phosphor bronze and can be removed from the outside so 
that the Pump can be easily repacked. All the workingparts 
coming in contact with the liquid are of phosphor bronze. 

We have this year selected the best known Gasoline 
Engine on the market ; not attempting to use the cheap 
unknown engines. We will gladly furnish full information in 
regard to Engine upon application.

per cent. 

Oil and water are drawn through suction hose. Always 
use as short suction as possible, and where convenient have 
suction flooded. 

Pump is equally well adapted for handling Bordeaux or 
other spraying liquid. All working parts — Plungers, glands, 
valves, etc., are of Brass. 

Can furnish outfits with any length of hose. 

In place of regular spray hose listed in outfits below we can 
furnish at additional cost a special discharge hose made to 
better withstand the action of kerosene.

(Patented March 7, 1899.) 

Figr. 1187, " Kerowater " mechanically mixes and sprays 
kerosene or crude petroleum and water. Either 5, 10, 15, 20 
or 25 per cent, oil can be used. 

A galvanized iron tank, containing oil goes inside of a bar- 
rel, containing water. Inside of oil tank is a Pump, and out- 
side is another Pump. Both Pumps are operated by one 
common lever. They both discharge at a common point, 
where the water and oil are blended. 

Percentage of oil is varied by changing pin in the lever. 
Pump is a positive measuring device and delivers exact per- 
centages of oil. Outfit is readily removed from barrel. Oil 
tank and Pump can be removed and the water Pump used for 
general spraying. WaterPump is similar to Fig. 1188, page 
7, and at ^i .25 extra list we can supply Agitator. All work- 
ing parts are of Bronze. 

We can furnish outfits with any desired length of hose. 
In place of regular spray hose listed in outfits below, we can 
furnish at additional cost a special hose made to better with- 
stand the action of kerosene.

With Separate Oil and Water Hose. 

(Patented March 7, 1899.) 




Fig. 11875^ differs only from Fig. 1 187 on opposite 
page in that the oil is conveyed to the nozzle through one 
hose and the water through another. The two hose 
are banded together as shown in cut. By this arrangement, 
mixture is made at the nozzle instead of at pump. Hose 
used is ^ in. and oil hose is specially made to better with- 
stand action of kerosene. 

When pipe extension is wanted our special Fig. 1326 
is required and costs extra $6.00 list. This extension is 8 ft. 
long, has brass double shut-off and is made with brass pipe 
inside of % in. iron pipe, oil being conveyed through former 
and water through latter and thus kept separate till nozzle is 
reached. 

We can furnish outfits with any desired length of hose.

Goulds Knapsack " Kcrowatcr." 

For Emulsifying and Spraying Kerosene and 
Water. 

(Patented March 7, 1899.) 




Fig. 1263. 

Many conditions are encountered under which our barrel 
•'Kerowater" cannot be advantageously operated, as in 
greenhouses, work on side hills, etc. For these purposes 
we have designed our Fig. 1263 Knapsack " Kerowater." 

It has a galvanized iron tank provided with straps for 
carrying on back or may be msed with reservoir resting on 
ground. It embodies the same principle as described under 
Fig. 1 187 (page 18) and consists of two independent Pumps, 
operated by a common lever, placed in the tank with divisions 
for oil and water. Capacity of tank about 5 gallons. Quan- 
tity of oil used is controlled by adjustment of a single pin, 
and maybe varied to 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 per cent. Pump 
may be operated by either hand, by changing lever to right 
or left.

Fig. 989. 

Fig. 989 has copper tank and brass pump, with ball 
valves and metal plunger, all of which are easily accessible. 

The discharge is at the bottom, and the Pump can be 
entirely drained of the liquid. Any leakage of fluid out of 
the stuffing-box will drip back into the tank. The change 
from the right to the left hand is simple, and made by dis- 
connecting the bearer link and bringing it over to the jaw 
provided for it on the other side. 

An eye on the top and back of knapsack enables one to 
suspend it steadily when he wishes to take it off from his back. 
It should be carried on back with the straps crossed in front. 

The reservoir is made of heavy copper, and will hold about 
five gallons of liquid.

Goulds Spraying Tanks. 




Fig. 1380. 

Fig. 1380 shows a Wooden Spraying Tank built from 
the ideas of some of the largest fruit growers in Western 
New York. 

The staves are made of i ^ inch pine, strongly gripped 
with steel and hard wood. The joints are machine made 
and are perfect. The tank weighs about 200 pounds, is 
eight feet long, three feet wide, and holds 200 gallons of 
liquid. It has one tight and one loose bolster and will 
set on the bolsters of any ordinary farm wagon. The top of 
Tank is very strong and allows Spray Pump to be firntly fastened 
thereoti, and also will accommodate the operator. Tanks 
furnished with or without an agitator. The agitator (see 
engraving) keeps the liquid thoroughly stirred all the time, 
so the last gallon of spraying mixture is just as strong as the 
first used. Paddles of agitator are bound with steel and run 
on a steel track in bottom of Tank. The handle is made so 
that it can be instantly tipped back in passing under low 
limbs of trees. Agitator may be taken out through handhole 
and Tank used for hauling water when wanted.

Goulds "Mistry" Nozzles. 

Goulds " Mistry " Nozzle is our new production 
made after many experiments and exhaustive trials. It 
resembles the " Vermorel " in appearance, but surpasses all 
other Spray Nozzles on the market in results obtained. It 
produces a perfect mist or fog at a very low pressure, — 25 
pounds being ample to produce as good a spray as is required 
in good spraying. It can be cleaned by simply pressing 
against limb of tree. It has thumb screw attachment which 
allows removal of any foreign substance which may clog the 
pipe. We offer in two sizes as below.

BORDEAUX MIXTURE. 

Copper Sulphate (Blue Vitriol) 6 lbs. 

Quick or Stone Lime 4 lbs. 

Water 45-5° gals. 

Dissolve the Copper Sulphate in an earthen or wooden 
vessel with three gallons of hot water ; or, preferably, put it 
in a coarse sack, as burlap or cheese cloth, and hang this in 
4 to 6 gallons of water near the surface. When dissolved 
pour into the spraying barrel, and fill the barrel about half 
full of water. Slake the lime, dilute it to 10 to 15 gallons, 
and pour this milk of lime into the barrel through a wire 
strainer. (See Fig. 1273, Page ^t,.) Do not mix the Cop- 
per Sulphate and lime when less dilute than this, as the 
resulting Bordeaux is likely to be lumpy, will settle quickly, 
and is more liable to burn the foliage. Add water to fill the 
barrel and stir the mixture well for a few minutes. Agitate 
frequently while it is being applied. 

If spraying peaches or Japan plums, use 2 pounds of 
Copper Sulphate instead of 6, and add an excess of lime. 
Bordeaux will adhere better to such smooth-surface plants as 
cabbage and cauliflower, if about i pound of hard soap dis- 
solved in hot water is added. The mixture itself should 
always be made fresh for each application, but a stock solu- 
tion of lime and Copper Sulphate maybe kept separately and 
will be good economy when the spraying operations are 
extensive. 

A stock solution of Copper Sulphate sufficient for a day's 
spraying in most cases may be made by dissolving 36 lbs. 
of Blue Vitriol in 36 gals, of water. For each barrel of 
Bordeaux use 2 or 6 gals, of this solution, according to 
the plants to be sprayed. Keep this stock solution tightly 
covered to prevent evaporation. In the same way 36 lbs. of 
quick lime may be slaked in as many gallons of water, and 
used as the copper solution ; or it may be slaked w'th just 
enough water to make a putty, which will keep indefinitely if 
covered with water, and is to be used with the ferro-cyanide 

37 



test. If the lime in the Bordeaux mixture is deficient, a 
drop of a saturated solution of ferro-cyanide of potassium, 
added to the mixture will turn brown. Add lime till the drop 
remains colorless and the mixture is ready to use. 

copp:^r sui<phat:e soi<ution. 

Strength a. 

Copper sulphate (Blue Vitriol) i lb. 

Water 15-25 gals. 

Dissolve the Copper Sulphate in water when ready for use ; 
or take a gallon of the stock solution. (See Bordeaux Mixt- 
ure. ) This strength is to be used only before the buds break. 
It should never be applied to foliage. Forpeaches and Japan 
plums use 25 gals, of w'ater. 
Strength i\ 

Copper Sulphate (Blue Vitriol) i lb. 

Water 200-300 gals. 

This solution is gaining ground as a substitute for the 
Ammoniacal Carbonate of Copper in spraying ripening fruits, 
especially plums. At the rate of ^ lb. per bbl. it is equally 
effective and seldom injures the foliage appreciably, though 
it is always better to add a Uttle milk of lime. Use the 
weaker strength given on peaches and Japan plums. It does 
not stick like Bordeaux, and must be used about twice as 
often. 

AMMONIACAI, COPPER CARBONATE. 

Copper Carljonate 5 oz. 

Ammonia (26^ Beaume) about 3 pints. 

Water 45-50 gals. 

Make a paste of the Copper Carbonate with a little water 
and dilute the ammonia with 7 to 8 volumes of water. Add 
the diluted ammonia to the paste, but be careful to use only 
enough to dissolve all the Copper Carbonate. Allow the 
solution to settle and use only the clear blue liquid. This 
loses strength on standing in open vessels, but may be kept 
indefinitely in a stoppered bottle. For spraying dilute to 45 
to 50 gallons. 

IRON SUIvPHATE AND SUI/PHURIC ACID 
SOI/UTION. 

Iron Sulphate (Copperas) no lbs. 

Sulphuric Acid i quart. 

Hot Water 26 gals. 

Add the acid to the copperas and pour on the water. 
Use when fresh. To be used only as a wash before the buds 
swell, applied with brush or sponge. Its chief value is for 
grape anthracnose. 

POTASSIUM SUI/PHIDE SOI^UTION. 

Potassium Sulphide ^ to i oz. 

Water i gal. 

This loses strength in standing and should be used imme- 
diately. Keep the Sulphide in a stoppered bottle. Valua- 
ble for mildews, especially the Gooseberry mildew. 

POISON INSECTICIDES OR AR- 
SENITES. 

(For insects that chew.) 

PARIS GREEN. 

Paris Green i lb. 

Water 1 50-300 gals. 

Quick Lime 2 to 3 lbs. 

38 



The usual strength for summer spraying' is % lb. per bar- 
rel (about 45 gallons). Lime should always be added to a 
Paris Green mixture to avoid burning the foliage. Peaches 
and Japan Plums are most liable to injury. Stir the mixture 
frequently when spraying. A common method is to apply 
the Paris Green in Bordeaux ; as for Apple Scab and the Cod- 
ling moth. The action of neither is weakened, and the 
Paris Green loses all its caustic properties. 

GR:eKN ARSENOID, PARAGRE^N. 

To be used like Paris Green. They are cheaper, remain 
longer in suspension, and are equally effective. These 
insecticides deserve to come into general use. 

arsenit:^ op wm^. 

This insecticide is coming more into popular favor yearly, 
and is worthy of it. Arsenite of lime is at least one-half 
cheaper than Paris Green, is equally efficient, and will not 
burn the tenderest foliage at the strength ordinarily applied. 
To make 800 gallons of spraying mixture : 

White Arsenic 2 lbs. 

Sal Soda 8 lbs. 

Water 2 ga-ls. 

Boil all together for 15 minutes, or till the arsenite dis- 
solves. One pint of this stock solution, and 2 lbs. of 
slaked lime, added to a barrel of water is equal in insecti- 
cidal value to ^ lb. of Paris Green, and costs half as much. 
Arsenite of lime ought to be used more generally in place of 
Palis Green. 

ARSKNAT:^ op I/i^AD. For insects that chew. 
I to 5 lbs. per 100 gals. It does not bum the foliage. 

WHITP HpI^lypBORP AND PYRpTHRUM. 

Preferably in water, i oz. to 3 gals.; or di-y, mixed with 
^ part of flour to make it adhesive. Hellebore and Pyre- 
thrum are used chiefly on ripening fruit, as they lose their 
poisonous properties when exposed to the air for a few hours. 

RPSIN I^IME MIXTURE. 

In spraying for chewing insects on plants with smooth 
leaves, as cabbage and cauliflower, it is difficult to make the 
poison adhere. This may be overcome by using the arsenites 
in the following material : 

Pulverized Resin 5 lbs. 

Concentrated Lye i lb. 

Fish Oil (or other animal oil, except 

tallow) I pint. 

Water 5 gals. 

Heat oil and resin with a gallon of water till the resin is 
softened. Add lye and the remaining 4 gallons of water and 
boil about two hours, or till the mixture will unite with cold 
water. Add water to make 5 gallons of this stock solution. 
When needed for spraying take 

Resin mixture i gal. 

Whitewash 3 gals. 

Paris Green )i^- 

Water 16 gals.

K^ROSENB AND WATER MIXTURE. 

This may be used in any case where Kerosene Emulsion or 
whale oil soap has been recommended in the past. It is more 
economical than the emulsion, and is easier to apply. 
GOULDS " KEROWATERS " (pages 17 to 20) provide 
for making and applying any desired strength. For scale 
insects use a 15% to 25% mixture; 5% strength is strong 
enough for such insects as mealy bugs, plant lice and thrips. 
Cabbage worms, currant worms and other soft-bodied insects 
may also be treated successfully. 

TOBACCO WATER. 

Boil stems and strain liquid. Add water to make 2 gallons 
of liquid to each pound of stems used. For soft-bodied 
insects. The efficiency of Tobacco Water will be increased 
by stirring in i pound of whale oil soap to each 50 gallons.

Dear Sirs : 

During the past season I have used your Power Spraying 
Outfit with the greatest success. Cannot speak too highly of 
it. The engine is simple and easily operated and the Pump 
is far ahead of anything I have seen. You have the acme of 
perfection in your idea of three upright plungers, which 
insures a smooth flow of water without change of pressure, 
and obliterates all the back-lash on the engine, which is the 
common fault in other styles of Pumps I have seen. 
Yours truly, 
(Signed) M. O. Mesler.
